Something In Your Eye, Mr. Secretary?


Is acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan giving the boss the Italian / Sicilian occhio sign, which loosely means "keep an eye out for this person"?


Trump marinaded in the organized crime-infested underworld of New York City construction for decades, so maybe his appointees are using the "language" he understands best.

BONUS: Perhaps they were discussing diverting Pentagon funds to build Trump's wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for. Shanahan may not be long for Trumpworld, as he's quoted as saying he hasn't determined whether a border wall with Mexico was a military necessity. Time to spend more time with the family?
